Labour Party (LP) has given reasons why the party’s Vice-presidential candidate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed will not engage in a debate with Nobel laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka.
The party, in a statement signed by the Chief Spokesperson of its Presidential Campaign Council (LP-PCC), Yunusa Tanko on Saturday, said it was culturally and politically not okay for Baba-Ahmed to debate with Soyinka.
Soyinka, in a statement titled “Fascism on Course,” released on Friday, challenged Baba-Ahmed to a debate as regards his claims of Nigeria’s democracy ending if the President-elect, Asiwasju Bola Tinubu, is sworn in May 29.
